Dont know where else to put this request. I'm looking to borrow/rent a matrox express 34 card for my matrox mini box. I'm doing a green screen shoot on Sunday and want to monitor canon 5d/7d via hdmi out. I'm in Burbank, shoot is at a studio in Encino. anybody game?
Again - didn't know where else to post this request so forgive the interruption of this awesome forum. Now back to your regularly scheduled geekin..

Thanks

Paul

Thanks Joe-

actually that would only be for OUTPUT from the macbook. I needed input to the macbook. We got it figured tho, just using standard monitors, cam monitors etc, skipping the macbook input.
Shot green screen, multicam , which brought up a new set of issues... see my new post!

Thanks again

...sorry Paul...read your post wrong sad smiley

Why not borrow an HDMI TV set? I have run HDMI out of my 7D to a Zacuto EVF passhrough to an HDMI TV set for monitoring. No sense clogging up the laptop smiling smiley

well, my plan was to use veescope live on the mbp, which allows live monitor and key testing, BG replace, scopes etc, all on the live shot. In reality, the key looks to be just fine w/o too much futzing. And as always, even w/o the extra monitoring, testing etc, the actual shooting time required expanded to fill our studio time exactly. Amazing!

Ah...didn't know that you wanted to use scopes..thought you were just monitoring.
